Dr Kerim Sener, Managing Director of Ariana Resources, commented: "We look forward to completing the transaction, which is subject to shareholder approval and also to the receipt of regulatory approvals in Turkey, and to continue the exploration and development of the New joint venture as proposed in our announcement of 7 December 2020. We are now accelerating plans to further drill-test vein extensions across the Kiziltepe mine area, in order to further expand the resources and reserves. In addition, plans to complete further resource drilling at the Tavsan Project are significantly advanced, the results of which will be integrated into the feasibility study. We are expecting to commence the latter drilling programme from early 2Q21 once the permitted areas are accessible following the winter."
